Did you know...The PCC functions as an extension of BYU-Hawaii classrooms?? Over 750 BYU-Hawaii students currently work at the Center each semester. Awesome huh!!
We actually spent two days at all the events of the Polynesian Cultural Center. Scott pushed his dad in a wheel chair these two days since there was so much walking. We went to a Luau which had such good food. The family we were seated with had already been to Maui and gave us lots of tips on the sites there.
We also went to the night show, now that was neat. Jacen was trying so hard to stay awake during the whole thing. He fell asleep right before the fire dancing. Scott really wanted to wake him up for it. I was okay with it. Can you imagine a 18mo old thinking he can play
with fire? Actually, the next morning he was reenacting some of the dances and songs we had heard. He had kitchen utensils in hand, banging on the couch as though it was a set of drums, making sure to hit all the cushions as part of his performance. It was fun to see how much he loved the shows.
BYU-Hawaii is right next to the Polynesian Cultural Center and the temple. We drove around campus. Here is a picture of the Laie Temple. It is so pretty.
We spent some time in the Visitors Center of the temple watching videos and such. Jacen loved the Christus Statue. He couldn't stop running over to it saying, "Jesus" while pointing to the Christus.
